It’s sometimes easy to forget that celebrities are people too and that their life goes on even after they’ve passed the peaks of their fame and the pinnacles of their career. Sometimes it’s nice to do some digging around the internet and see what these people are up to now. The same goes for the people who were once considered to be the epitome of beauty in the United States — the women who have won the Miss USA and Miss Universe beauty pageants. Here are 11 beauty queens that seem to have not changed one bit since they won their place in the history of US beauty pageants.
Terry Lynn Huntingdon, Miss USA 1959
Terry Lynn Huntingdon was the 7th winner of the Miss USA beauty pageant (the first was held in 1952). Following her success on the stage and runway, Mz. Huntingdon became a film and TV actress. The most famous movie she stared in was Five Finger Exercise. In 1975 she married a democratic senator and had a daughter Alexandra Tydings (whom you may know as Aphrodite from Xena: Warrior Princes).
Bobbi Johnson, Miss USA 1964
Even though beauty pageants are stereotyped as events where looks are everything and brains don’t matter – this couldn’t be further from the truth. After winning the Miss USA beauty pageant of 1964, Bobbi Johnson worked as an applications engineer at General Electric!
Sylvia Hitchcock, Miss Universe 1967
Sylvia Hitchcock won both the Miss USA and Miss Universe pageants of 1967. After winning the titles she pursued a modeling career, but soon found herself disillusioned by the world of professional modeling. She transitioned into work on a TV station.
Wendy Dascomb, Miss USA 1969
When the first Miss USA beauty pageant happened, Wendy Dascomb was only 2 years old. After her year-long tenure as Miss USA she got married. Since 1990 she and her husband have owned a farm where Mz. Dascomb trained horses. Riding and training horses is also the secret ingredient to Wendy Dascomb’s ability to stay fit and healthy over the past 50 years. This has been something she was doing ever since she was a kid, and she’s very happy to have been able to continue doing it in the years after being Miss USA. Over the years she has been a teacher, tutor, mentor, and pastry chef.
